Not sure where he'd end up. Cowboys or 49ers maybe. Just a team with a good D that needs a QB to make everything click.

With their current quarterback situation, I actually think he may go to the Saints, if he continues to play. They are the one team he can't seem to beat consistently, and they were actually his top destination after he left the Patriots, had Drew Brees chosen to retire that year.

The 49ers would be perfect since he basically started his career as a Joe Montana impersonation, this time with measurements!

No. It is a law of football that the Niners never, ever, get any of the superstar QBs from their area.
They can go comb Notre Dame for talent like they did in the good old days.

A fan ran on to the field tonight and got laid out by future Hall of Fame linebacker Bobby Wagner for his efforts.

The activist who ran onto the field and was summarily leveled by Rams defenders Bobby Wagner and Takk McKinley on “Monday Night Football” this week has filed a police report.
That’s according to TMZ, who confirmed with Santa Clara police that the report was filed.
Alex Taylor is an activist on behalf of the organization Direct Action Everywhere. A fellow member of the organization, Allison Fluty, tried to run onto the gridiron as well, but was tackled by security before reaching the playing field.

They sought to bring attention to a trial in which two animal rights activists are facing charges for stealing two pigs from a factory farm in Utah in 2017.


The organization called the hit on the activist a “blatant assault.” He was carrying a machine that sprayed pink smoke, and allegedly suffered a burn on his arm.


“You don’t know what that fan got or what they’re doing,” Wagner said after the game, citing safety concerns for stepping in and leveling the activist.

As of Wednesday afternoon, Wagner has not been charged with a crime in the incident.


Reporters from the sports business outlet Sportico discussed whether athletes who take out fans who run onto the field could eventually face civil liability from the incidents.


“I contend one day a jock is going to seriously hurt one of these knuckleheads and find him or herself facing a civil suit. Am I nuts?” Sportico’s editor-in-chief Scott Soshnick asked the outlet’s legal analyst, Michael McCann.

Terrell Owens is probably in better shape and a fair sight younger, I'm sure he'd pick up the phone.

He would, and he's old and dealing with a nagging injury which makes him a perfect fit.

I honestly blame a lot of this shit on the fact that Brady wants veteran WRs because he doesn't want to practice, and, well where are we going to find the unsigned veterans? Tom digging through the trash bin of broken players.

Brady is going to be looking for a hispanic in Miami to talk with ocho cinco soon
 
Russell Wilson looks fucking awful. I don't care how bad the coach is, a good QB will help mask that. Peyton Manning made Adam Gase look good when he was an OC and Aaron Rodgers made Mike McCarthy look good. Wilson has yet to do that.

He might get better but right now, Geno Smith is better than Russel Wilson at this point in time
 
We tried telling you he was an aging scrambler, who refuses to adjust his game to new schemes/his declining athleticism. He's having the same power struggle with Hackett about having to spread around targets and take what the defense is giving him that he had with Pete. That 4th & 1 play where he didn't even look in Hamler's direction and instead threw to a double-covered Sutton (who he had been staring down all game) made it obvious.
Now that Williams is out for the season and the Broncos run game is wafer-thin, defenses are going to post 2 high safeties and let linebackers reinforce the sidelines and shut Wilson out, game after game. And he has a massive case of protagonist syndrome and won't take that well.
 
Been a Broncos fan since I could ever remember, so about '93. This Russell Wilson debacle just about has me hanging on by just a thread of my fandom.

It's been so obvious that Wilson's been on a downward trajectory for at least the last three years, so giving up the farm for this motherfucker is absolutely ludicrous.

Your ownership should honestly be beating Sean Payton's door down right now. I know the prospect of sending even more draft stock outside of the building to trade for his contract isn't appealing, but without an established coach to bring back the locker room and corral Wilson's worst tendencies, you're just going to repeat the Seahawks' last 3 years, but with a carousel of rookie/retread HCs instead of recycled OCs. Russ isn't going to put the blame on himself inside the building and will keep blaming the coaches when encountering failure, and he's more expensive than the coach, so they'll keep getting the boot.
He doesn't have leverage to do that if the coach is Sean Payton, who can respond to any complaints Wilson has about executing his offense with "Drew Brees had no problem with hit". And he had Brees playing at least at a competent level until 42.

Also this tweet is amazing, inject this shit right into my veins

It shouldn't be too bad. I think the most likely scenario is that Payton already knows where he wants to go and the Saints will be nice and trade him for a 3rd and a 4th or something.

Not sure he'd want to go try to fix the Broncos though. Russ honestly seems like he's checked out of the game mentally with him missing easy reads and wandering straight into pass rushers.
